Had a very hard time at scrabble last week as I only won one game out of six.  The head librarian came over to the computer club meeting with ipods and kindles.  The library is now lending these items plus the music, books etc which go on them.  If you have your own ipods and kindle, you can download items from the library and after a certain time they disappear.  I'm going next week to week if I can borrow an ipod before I purchase one.
